your rubbing wires somewhere...

 

Remove your left faring, and air intake cover. Turn your key on and kill switch to the run position first. Then Check the grey connector with 16 (i think) terminals, as you push and pull the connector like you are going to connect and disconnect it see if it turns the fuel pump on and off or headlights etc.. They melt and or corrode inside and shut off the bike, killing the headlights, fuel pump and sometimes turn signals. If you have a tough time disconnecting this connector don't pull your hair out. It is melted within itself. I had a bike doing similar things and has melted this connector inside itself. The connector was cut apart saving the majority of it and abandoning only the portion with the end two wires using a hacksaw blade and patience. I hope this helps find the problem. I would check there first. The connector to the left of the top engine in the picture P1230127_zpsefe82ddb.jpg Photo by Bryce_Swartzwelder | Photobucket
